Deepal automobile expands global presence and ramps up production
Deepal automobile has achieved cumulative international sales of 31,588 units across 17 countries between 2024 and the first half of 2026. Thailand serves as the brand's primary overseas market, accounting for 61% of total international sales with 19,235 units sold. Other notable markets include Israel (13%), the United Kingdom (6%), and Spain (6%). The company's strategy involves initial penetration in single markets like Thailand followed by regional expansion into Europe.
Domestically, Deepal Chairman Deng Chenghao reported that the newly launched S05 model is experiencing high demand, leading to vehicle shortages in late July. To meet this demand, nearly 10,000 S05 units were produced prior to the launch. Global production is expected to exceed 20,000 units in August, with over 15,000 units allocated to the Chinese market. The S05 features batteries supplied by CATL and offers CLTC electric ranges between 520 km and 620 km.
